Vocab Warrior

It’s time to flex that vocabulary muscle! You’re going to need to pull out all the stops and dig up some of those obscure words you know if you want to come out ahead in the game, Pick Two: The Definitive Crossword Game. You’re going to need to figure out with that random “Q” at the end of the game. You’d also better have a plan for that “V’ you’re holding. And you definitely need to draw another “Z” if you want to spell out “pizza” for the win.

Fun Details

Pick Two: The Definitive Crossword game is designed by Outset and comes with 180 tile lets, a tile bag, and instructions. Gameplay is simple, but requires a healthy vocabulary and a quick mind. Each player must arrange their tiles into words that create a crossword puzzle. Once you’ve used up your letter tiles, you get to shout “Pick Two!” and force everyone to draw two more tiles from the pile. Then, it all starts again as you must incorporate the new letters into your crossword puzzle by adding to it, or completely reshaping it. The first player to use up all of their tiles when the stack runs out wins!
